After the queen came to the throne, I was forced to be nine thousand years old

Chapter 170 Returning to Beijing
April 16, [-]th year of Yuanji.

A majestic army stood outside Zhenbei City, holding a towering banner that soared into the sky.

Zheng Chixiao bowed deeply with a serious face, "It is a great fortune to have two princesses in Dajin today, so that the people of the Northland are less hungry and cold. The kindness of the two princesses to the Northland will be remembered forever." , The old minister will also set up a monument of merit and virtue, and pass on the name of merit and virtue to everyone!"

After saying this, no matter it was Huwei or the people at Zaoyi, there were smiles on their faces.

When there is a disaster in the north, all the monsters and ghosts come out. This is a great thing. Not only can you ask for merit from the court, but also see what Mr. Zheng wants, and you can also write their names on the monument of merit. This is a good thing for Guangzong Yaozu .

Ji Lingshu's voice came from the carriage, "Your Majesty Zheng, you are welcome. We are only doing what we have to do. The main credit is still yours."

Zheng Chixiao's face remained unchanged, "Veterans dare not be greedy for credit."

Before Ji Lingshu could say anything else, Zheng Chixiao looked up at the sky and said loudly, "The auspicious time has come, please go back to Beijing as soon as possible, the two princesses!"

Zuo Daoqi was riding on the horse, and his heart skipped a beat. Mr. Zheng, who was a little weird today, seemed to be impatient to let them return to Beijing.

But he could feel that Zheng Chixiao had no malice, but simply wanted the two princesses to leave.

Yes... Northland, has anything changed?
Zuo Dodge pondered in his heart.

But it has been more than three months since he left Beijing this time, and he has already returned home, and Zheng Chixiao must not be troubled by the rebirth of the Northland. If he still needs the support of the court, Emperor Yuanji will not send Changyi and Ji Lingshu again.

When they went back, it seemed that everyone had returned to their hearts like an arrow, much faster than when they came.

This time, there is no need to go to Huzhou, and there is no need to buy food when returning to Beijing. Naturally, we will go directly south to Gyeonggi.

"Zuo Qing, wait a minute, why did you move my chess pieces!"

Zuo Daoqi sat on the carriage and played backgammon with Princess Changyi.

He looked at Changyi's chess pieces blocking his way of making chess with a strange expression, "The minister's sleeve accidentally touched it."

"Be careful in the future, well, it's time for you to go. I have already connected the four beads!"

Zuo Dodge took a step casually, "The princess is superb in chess, and the minister admires her."

Changyi wrinkled his nose and snorted, as if expressing his disdain for the opponent's defeated opponent, since he said enthusiastically, "Cai'er, let's talk with Bengong!"

Zuo Dodge slandered secretly in his heart, talking about a game with your hands was a loss, you said it out, whichever time you won, you didn't talk with your mouth.

Cai'er went into battle, Zuo Dodge naturally left his seat.

Ji Lingshu, who was walking cross-legged beside him, opened his eyes and asked, "Uncle, who do you think is the traitor who caused us to fall into the Tai Sui demon kingdom last time?"

Zuo Dodge shook his head, "I'm not sure, but I have some guesses in my heart."

Ji Lingshu asked, "Niu Fu and Dongfang Dan?"

Zuo Dodge was surprised, "You also think it's one of them?"

"Maybe both."

Left Dodge was silent.

This matter has not been settled in the Northland, but the guards of the two princesses along the way have all been served by tiger guards. Except for Zuo Daoqi at Zaoyi, they were completely marginalized by the princesses' guard of honor.

But this matter did not end here, on the contrary, after entering the capital, the emperor would not investigate thoroughly, Zuo Daoqi believed that Emperor Yuanji must have such thoughts.

After Emperor Yuanji crazily wiped out several families that day, Zuo Daoqi no longer doubted Emperor Yuanji's determination!
Zuo Daoqi closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them again, looking at Changyi and Cai'er who were playing chess over there, feeling infinitely peaceful in his heart.

"Cai'er! You obviously didn't intend to go here just now, why did you come here, don't be foolish!"

Well, tranquility is an illusion.

Zheng Chixiao looked to the south, which was the direction of the capital.

"Chixia, don't you go to the capital with your two classmates?"

Yan Xiaoer, no, Yan Chixia shook his head, his bearded face looked very serious, "Duke Zheng was great all his life, I want to follow a great man, and then become a great man."

Zheng Chixiao smiled.

"Follow me, it's very difficult in the Northland."

Yan Chixia didn't care at all, "When you named me, you said that Chizi's chivalrous heart can be transformed into an immortal. I won't find it difficult. Besides, isn't the disaster all over? After following you, the three The governor of the state, isn't that what is popular and spicy!"

Zheng Chixiao smiled and stopped talking. His eyes turned from south to north, his body moved slightly due to the turning of his eyes, and his expression became solemn.

"Zhang Julu, I will trust you again..."

"Youming... hey!"

Yan Chixia followed his movements, squinted and looked in the direction he was looking, but couldn't see anything. "My lord, what are you looking at?"

"See what you can't see."

"What is something I can't see? How can I see it?" Yan Chixia had a childish temper in front of Zheng Chixiao, and his words tended to be close to chatterbox.

Zheng Chixiao turned his head and said, "Nine hundred miles away from here, there is a strange mountain of poisonous miasma in Lanshuizhai, and there is a tree demon that sucks human blood. When you can kill that tree demon, I will tell you What do you think?"

The guard of honor of the princess had already walked out of the Northland, and Zuo Dodge looked back from time to time. He could always feel that in the depths of the Northland, there seemed to be an inexplicable thing threatening him.

This feeling disappeared after leaving the Northland, and Zuo Dodge was keenly aware of it.

A haze could not help but appear in his eyes, could it be that there is something else going on in Beidi?
A while ago, because the demons were everywhere in the Northland, the people from the Demon Slaying Mansion had mobilized their manpower to go to the Northland to suppress the demons. If necessary, they would dispatch an elite army.

Zuo Daoqi and Ji Lingshu met the dead souls occasionally, but they didn't say a few words.

The guard of honor went all the way south, and at night, they rested in a county called Tingzhen County.

Without the tension when they came, the two princesses naturally went to the inn.

Zuo Dodge naturally wanted to follow.

More than three months have passed since the death of the fourth prince, and Changyi has already recovered from his grief, smiling much more than before.

This is a small inn called Sifang. From the name of this bad street, it can be seen that the grade of this inn is not too high, but it is also the best inn in this county.

Changyi walked in the front with a look of disgust, allowing Xiaojizi and Xiaobazi to sweep the dirt on the road for her so that she could walk on a clean floor.

Ji Lingshu said in a low voice, 'hypocritical. '

Changyi ignored it, and didn't know if he heard it.

However, just as she was about to go back to her room, she suddenly said, "Little eunuch, come and serve me to rest, this small place still needs your protection, and Xiyuan martial arts is strong, so I don't need you either."

Ji Lingshu paused, then squinted at Zuo Dodge, and walked towards the next room without saying a word.

Zuo Daoqi glanced at Changyi, expressionless, "Princess, do you need my servant to take a bath for you?"

Under the night, I couldn't see Changyi's expression clearly, but I could tell that she seemed a little shy, but before entering the door, she said unnaturally, "Then why don't you boil the water?"

Zuo Daoqi is happy, this little princess is really interesting and cute.

But it was Zuo Daoqi's first time serving Princess Changyi to take a bath. After all, Princess Changyi brought a maid.

Just now, he was just a little dissatisfied with Changyi's deliberately saying that in front of Ji Lingshu, so he wanted to give her a general, but he didn't expect him to agree directly.

This is really a bit embarrassing.

After all, the next door is Ji Lingshu's room, if something happens, it won't look good.

Zuo Daoqi was thinking, while going to boil water, the people in this inn had been cleared out, replaced by people from Tiger Guard, Zuo Daoqi had to boil water by himself.

Just when he had just boiled the water and was ready to undress Changyi for a bath, there was a loud noise outside.

"Where is Zuo Baihu! I want to see Zuo Baihu, there is a demon in the mountains, please help Zuo Baihu to get rid of the demon!"

"I heard that Zuo Baihu wiped out the demon country alone in the north, please help Zuo Baihu!"

"I heard that Zuo Baihu is here. I, Tingzhen County, are saved. I beg Zuo Baihu to come out and see you!"

Zuo Dodge paused for a moment, pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

Comfortable, has my reputation already spread here?
Although he felt that bathing Changyi was also very important, Zuo Dodge still felt that he had to go and see who the handsome guy who could read his name and deeds was.

After he walked out, he saw an old man stopped by the tiger guards. He had a wretched smile on his face, his eyebrows were raised and lowered, his eyes were big and small, and he was very distinctive. A big yellow tooth was on, but most of the front teeth were missing.

Boil!
I thought he was a handsome guy.

Zuo Dodge wanted to go back before he went out. Isn't this product too shabby?

Is this your fan?
In the middle of the night, if I knew I was going to take a bath for Changyi, maybe Ji Lingshu wanted to take a bath after Changyi finished washing.

Just as he was thinking, a voice sounded.

"This is Zuo Baihu. If you have anything to do, just say it."

It was just a soldier of Tiger Guard who was guarding the gate. He smiled unsmilingly at Zuo Dodge, "Zuo Baihu, this old man wants to see you. He said that someone's life is a matter of fate. We asked him before, but he didn't say anything."

Zuo Daoqi smiled awkwardly, then looked at the old man, and asked, "Old man, what do you need from Benbaihu?"

The old man grinned his big yellow teeth, and looked at the tiger guards on both sides with some embarrassment.

"Didn't you shout to get rid of the demon? Why is it shameful to get rid of the demon? Hurry up and tell me, I have no time to talk nonsense with you." Seeing the old man whimpering, Zuo Daoqi urged impatiently road.

The old man smiled awkwardly. Obviously, what he just said was just his reason for meeting Zuo Dodge.

Zuo Dodge became even more impatient, why is this person so annoying, "Are you in trouble, breaking into the princess's resting place without permission, you will lose your head!"

As if frightened by the harshness in Zuo Dodge's mouth, the old man looked around again, and finally decided to speak. He took a step forward, and an unpleasant smell rushed into Zuo Dodge's nose. He approached and said to Zuo Dodge in a low voice,

"Zuo Baihu, do you want an apprentice or not, as long as you open Jinkou, I will send it to you right away!"
